More proof Apple users are morons

Five people have been charged in southern China with illegal use of a kidney after a teenage fanboi in the country sold one of his organs to buy a shiny new iPhone and iPad.

Xinhua news agency reported that the five include Song Zhongyu, a surgeon from a provincial hospital in Yunnan province, Su Kaizong, who works in a hospital urology department and ringleader He Wei, who organised the operation to pay off his gambling debts.

The 17-year-old from Anhui province surnamed Wang, who agreed to the illegal transplant last April, is now suffering from renal failure, a condition which could ultimately prove fatal.
